Embarrassing Things You've Seen/Done In The Gym

[dmaipa]

In high school i grabbed some DBs for DB Bench PRess. I rested them on my knees and when i leaned back to bring them to my chest i kinda used my right knee a little more than my left knee causing the right side db to fly up faster making me fall of the right side of the bench...luckily no DBs were hurt during this incident. hahah

Let's see:

I've uppercutted myself with a bar doing overhead presses

Busted a ceiling light showing my brother how to do one arm snatches with a barbell. Then the bumper plates fell off.

Ripped my shorts doing squats.

Vomitted on my way to the bathroom after a killer set of leg extensions. It is the only time I've ever puked from a workout.

Passed out after reracking my log. Longest fall ever.

Had band snap while I was warming up and hit me right in the nose.

Fallen over numerous times doing sled drags and pulls.

Accidentally grabbed my double knotted shoelaces on my left shoe doing speed deadlifts. Got about mid shin haha.

I'm a little worried about me doing this one some day in the near future. I've almost been there a few times. My gym isn't exactly a place where hardcore lifters go (it's at my workplace) so I'm afraid if that happened there wouldn't be anyone that would understand. That and almost having to crawl to the locker room. Boy, wouldn't my co-workers go on that one!

My gym is decidedly not hardcore. It's a YMCA. Also, I was literally five feet from the door. It was only water vomit.

Forgot to add one.

Unintentionally made a slingshot in the power rack and launched my log into someone's sweat shirt.

Good God, man! I'm fairly certain one could make a pretty good reality show/sit-com if they followed you around in the gym with a videocamera LOL.

I forgot about the time I did an upright row and hit my jaw. I broke a tooth in half.

"Launched my log into someone's sweat shirt."

This quote is officially the quote of the day!

That could SO be misinterpreted by the wrong person.

Workout day is a very dangerous day.

I'm pretty sure most of what I say could be misinterpreted.
